Community gardening session – Saturday, January 5, 10am and noon

The Sustainable Food Group is starting an exciting new project this month in Rockwell Green.

We have permission to plant more edible fruit and nut trees and bushes in a new area - and it’s the biggest project so far - on nearly an acre site!

We will be working with the Somerset Rural Youth Project and the Youth Centre, and the field is a blank canvas at the moment. Come along to have input from the start in what we do there. We really need new volunteers to be able to see the dream become a reality, so please join us and help us make this happen.

10am - meet on site at the bottom of Dobree Park near the railway line. We will bring surveying equipment to measure the plot, and need help doing this. We can also discuss ideas and start to formulate a plan. Postcode either via Dobree Park TA21 9RT, or walking access via Greenway road TA21 9DE.

12 noon - meet at the Dolphin Pub, in the room upstairs. We can create a wish list, and start to sketch out a plan.
